The Waiting Game


How long will it take the thread to arrive from Australia? I guess about two weeks. Bets?

I did manage to complete the round without running out, which is very lucky! Now I'm playing the same  dangerous game, as I've begun a border on another of my hankie gifts. This one is for me.

The thread is Karey's, #70, a freebie, (thank you, Lea!) combined with a #80 Lizbeth, so I don't - hopefully - run out! The pattern is Karey's.

  4. Fox, Knowing the inside workings of Australia Post, which is going through a bit of turmoil at the moment, two weeks is fair guesstimate. Was a time not so long ago when it would have been less than 7 days. Love your work and the various exploits of Mr G. Hilary (aka 2xcatz)
